[Finished Songs] [Unfinished Songs]

Recorded in my home studio. All songs written and produced by Chuck Allen. I sing and play virtually all instruments.

All Right Now (3:49)  [real] [windows media]

Written after a trip to Idaho and Montana in late 2001. That's Roger Williams on acoustic slide guitar, adding a little down home to the whole endevour.

My Favorite Place (4:56)  [real] [windows media]

Also written after that trip to Montana. The only song I've written in 6/8 time.

Soul Workout (3:33)  [real] [windows media]

About as funky as I get.

Toss Up (5:09)  [real] [windows media]

Sort of a CSNY kind of song. That's Roger Williams on the Steven Stills style lead guitar.

Loneliness (3:59)  [real] [windows media]

An angry John Lennon-ish sort of tune.

Passion (4:08)  [real] [windows media]

Sort of like something Peter Gabriel would do.

Plastic Fantastic (3:46)  [real] [windows media]

Psychadelic. Dig the signature sound, that's a cymbal being played with a violin bow.

Woman To Me (3:05)  [real] [windows media]

Kind of sounds like a lost Santana track with the organ and overdriven lead. Perhaps also a bit like the Zombies.

She's Coming Home (3:14)  [real] [windows media]

Trying to do the Hollies here. Just bought a 12-string guitar and wanted to see what I could do with it. Three part harmonies. This would have been a total hit in 1966.

Looks Like Heaven  [real] [windows media]

Pretty song. Nice beat. Kind of Fleetwood Macish.

Give Me All Of Your Loving [windows media]

Trying to be Smoky Robinson and the Miracles here.

Going Through the Motions [windows media]

Sort of like a Michael McDonald, blue-eyed soul thing.

When the Changes Come Down [windows media]

Psychadelic, Revolver meets Piper at the Gates of Dawn. Roger Williams on lead.
